I have no idea. Google and Microsoft have been in a buying frenzy lately. Perhaps the buying of other companies/websites caused their stock prices to increase.Originally posted by udontknowme:what though will one gain from 'owning' a certain website...??? -

then, put ads or wadever on the site, then everytime got ppl view the site, they view the ads too, so site owner earn money -

No la, not so much de. It's measured in CPM and it ranges from a few cents to $1+. For example, the one in sgForums (managed by sgImpact) are around $0.03/CPM.Originally posted by dumbdumb!:wah lao. who say advert cannot earn money. imagine u charge 1 cent per advertisment for every one person who view friendster.

They earn money from advertising. Advertising is more successful with
targeted advertising, as the companies can choose the demographics of the
users they want to show the ads to. Quite cost effective alternative to
advertising on tv or newspaper. The same amount of money used for
advertising to a tarrgeted audience instead of just everyone can potentially
achieve a higher response rate.
